Fresh off a commanding 3-0 victory over REG, Police VC is looking to build on that momentum as they face the title-holders APR.

"Our first game against REG was tough, but we were prepared tactically, and that’s what gave us the win. It wasn’t about REG being a weak team, it was our ability to control the game from the start," Ntagengwa told Times Sport.

He pointed out that his team can get a victory in the APR game too.
